I can desolder and solder new sockets with no problem. Will take me an hour.
The mT RAM chips are unreliable and fail often. I will remove and replace them all.
Picked up this Atari 130XE at VCF SoCal last month. The seller informed me that it failed the RAM test. Indeed, it does. And it is full of the dreaded mT RAM chip soldered to the board. A fun soldering project for the weekend #atari #atari8bit #atari130xe

A photo illustration of an "AI citation-izer." It is a slot-style game machine with tumblers that have author names, dates and journal names on them to create a random citation.
Journal Submissions Riddled With AI-Created Fake Citations
References used to be one of the last things journal editors checked before publishing a paper. Artificial intelligence is changing that. https://bit.ly/46FQURh

Some good points about the importance of preceptorship in the vibe coding era cacm.acm.org/opinion/rede... #coding #vibecoding
Yes, but what agents did they engineer to do the coding? What skills did they have access to? Did the agents use GitHub as an MCP server? What was the plan? www.tomshardware.com/software/ope... #coding #vibecoding
Excellent paper on the use of agentic AI for biomedical research by @moorejh.bsky.social & colleagues

data centers?
Hey Snowflake, I don't live in Calgary. Also, this is unwanted spam. Not a good look for your company #snowflake #blocked #email #ethics
We do have an amazing simulation center. Very impressive www.beckershospitalreview.com/hospital-man... #healthcare #simulation
love terminals
Some computers are easy to spot — smartphones, laptops, the machines we build. But many natural systems — cells, brains, even turbulent fluids — carry out computations too.
A new paper by SFI’s David Wolpert and Jan Korbel explores these computations encoded in natural dynamic systems.
never had one, but very much want one. These sell for $3000 or more..... hard to justify spending that much! #amiga #amiga4000

I have changed institutions several times in my career & learned my lesson about tying too much to academic emails. Advice to junior faculty: key everything to a personal email like gmail e.g. society accounts, publishers, subscriptions, etc.... #advice #academia #email
